The report button is for reporting improper post such as spam. When you click report it opens a window for you to type in what the issue is.

The "Report" button and the green light are unrelated.

As others have said, the green light means the member is online. The report button is for reporting posts that break forum rules (insults/political/etc.).

Thanks man.I get it now.Was mostly curious as to why it was sometimes green and sometimes not.Thought maybe it was someone that was being watched for some reason.
